Season 2’s winner sometimes struggles for attention, but not today. Ruben reached two milestones with his current single reaching top 15 on UAC and top 50 on Urban (a chart rarely frequented by Idols).
The next two milestonse were songs reaching the top 20 in their respective formats. Kris Allen’s LLWD stormed into the top 20 on Pop with a great week. This most recent winner not only traded the top Idol spot on that chart with the first winner, he helped out other Idols on the chart by pushing Beyonce’s song recurrent. Over on Country, Kellie Pickler managed yet another top 20 hit for herself.
Finally, on AC, Elliott Yamin’s “Can’t Keep on Loving” jumped into the top 40.
